Abstract: A kit and method for removing and disposing of oil from the crankcase of a vehicle includes an open top plastic support pan, and a plastic bag containing a predetermined quantity of granular clay. The bag is placed in the pan and the top thereof is folded over a top rim of the pan to expose the granular clay afterwhich the pan is placed beneath the drain of the crankcase. The oil flows into the clay and is absorbed thereby forming a moist granular material. The bag then is closed and secured by a usual twist tie wire. The bag is removed from the pan and deposited in a refuse container for subsequent transfer to a dump site. The used, collected oil is completely absorbed by the granular clay and is disposed of without harming the environment.
